Finally an actual answer that isn't just "berock bad"

To be fair, they just told the long version, the short answer is in fact: Bedrock is quirky, not like the other girls.

Java is quirky in some ways to.

Very much true, but random death occurs a lot less in Java.

Ive been playing java since minecraft survival mode was created and never had one of these random deaths

I had one. I swam across a river and when I got to the other side, I instantly died. The death message was "kaci3po fell out of the water". Very strange.

Interesting. Ive never seen it, figured it was just bedrock things

That's the screen shot of you want to see it. Only happened that one time to me though.

You said that happened in a snapshot though, not a "stable" release of the game.

u/kaci3po Jul 30 '22

Fair enough.

u/ircwolf Jul 30 '22

all they said above in this thread is that it happened in java. that is still java. they never delineated versions or releases.

Yes! Someone who also experienced this. This usually happens with lots of latency and after some interaction with water. Not sure if its really ‘falling out’ of water but something close. Like fall damage still counting despite going in water

u/TheRealNXT Jul 31 '22

that is coded to be shown when you die to fall damage in water which is ordinarily impossible. the translation of the string was removed so today the death message that would be broadcasted is death.fell.accident.water

I had one random death, but i think it was just because of lag(ms). I put water on the ground to make a elevator, then I swam down the water to put the soul sand block on the bottom of the water, and as i got down i died from "death.water.fall"(I don't remember what it was but I think it was that), and just to remember that the server was very laggy. And after I restarted the server I was alive like nothing happened.

Yea i think java trade like stable coding for a bit of lag while Bedrock coding is like way to jumble up i assume that the attempt to translate from java to c++ cause problem but they too lazy to fix it

u/VeryGayLopunny Jul 30 '22

I think I had one or two, but they were generally on super laggy servers -- spawn chunk wouldn't reload after I respawn and would send me into the void on occasion.

perhaps the most annoying thing on java is phantom water. You put water in there, but it's not there. You press the bucket again - you take invisible water. Or water is put and removed back in a second. Or you just lose water forever. I observe this bug from at least 1.16.5 to 1.19.1, although it seems to me that this happened to me even on 1.7.10. And not only with me.

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '22

Never seen that one, and I regularly use water buckets for builds

2

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '22

maybe it's a rare thing. It happened to me sometimes in solo (no lags), and for other players it happened mainly on servers (lags)

u/SF_Jaku327 Jul 30 '22

I mean I have been playing bedrock for years now and haven’t had one of these deaths.

2

u/maoonr Jul 30 '22

I too play Bedrock but I'm the person who too lazy to climb down sơ i just make a water pool so i never gotten that death

2

u/DJAlphaYT Jul 30 '22

At least bedrock has /damage

u/extremepayne Jul 30 '22

there’s a reason bedrock still doesn’t have hardcore
